GOVERNMENT BY THE MOB.
• (Toronto Globe, April 10)
There is no longer a pretence of fair
play in the Parliament of Canada. That
the revered Chief of the Liberal party,
as statesman of worldwide reputation,
whose Parliamentary methods have
always been most courteous and con-
siderate, should be howled down in the
Commons by a mob of opponents after
the Speaker signified that he had the
floor is a black, ugly stain upon every
man who took part in the infamous
affair, from Premier Borden down.
But one word of comment was spoken
by Sir Wilfrid when by formal resolut-
ion of the majority the speaker's ruling
was set aside and Mr. Hazen was given
the floor, "Shame he said. That
word wilt be re-echoed wherever men
meet to discuss the revolutionary pro-
ceedings of the Government. Sir Wil-
frid had within the past two weeks
given a signal proof of his desire to
onduct the affairs of the country with
dignity and decorum. He had consen-
ted, much against the wishes of nine -
tenths of his own supporters, to granting
with a minimum of discussion a sixth of
the supply for the fiscal year. The
blocking or supply for the fiscal year.
The blocking of supply was perfectly
feasible and a quite constitutional met-
hod of Parliamentary warfare. At the
risk of offending the more ardent of nis
supporters Sir Wilfrid insisted that the
Opposition should facilitate the granting
of supply. In return for this chivalry
he has been howled down by a mob led
by Messrs. Rogers and Borden.
What object was to be served by for-
cing Sir Wilfrid to give way to Mr.
Hazen, despite the Speaker's ruling
that he had the floor, does not clearly
appear. Was it intended that Premier
Borden's speech should go to the coun-
try without a reply from Sir Wilfrid in
the same issue of the Press? That
seems to be the only explanation which
fits the circumstances. And what ` a
ridiculous one it is. The idea that the
gagging resolution would be permitted
to go through without debate could
surely not have been entertained. Be
fore the Parliament of Canada passes
under gag law, Sir Wilfrid's voice, and
the voices of his followers, from the
greatest to the least, will be heard in
every possible form of protest against
the destruction of the right of free
speech. The Tory majority may ride
roughshod over the Speaker of its own
choice, but it cannot daunt Liberals
either in Parliament or out. The hisses
that greeted Mr. Borden when be rose
to vote that Sir Wilfrid Laurier be not
permited to speak but that Mr. Hazen be
given the floor, are but the first evidences
of the storm protest that will be heard
all over Canada when it is learned that
the greatest and most courteous of
Canada's statesmen was howled down
by a yelling mob after the Speaker had
urged that he should lie heard.
invading Sassenach on the bloody field,
Then Cluny blew a melody so fierce, so
eldritch, so grinding and blistering to
the soul' that every clansman ripped
and dashed his way through the English
hordes, intent on only one thing -to es-
cape the fiendish screeching of the pipes.
And that is why every grateful Scot to
this day oherishes the bagpipe, the
preserver of Scottish imdepeudeuce.
He has beaten his sword into a plow-
share, but he will always uphold the
pipes to beat the band,-Harper's
Weekly.
CULTIVATE REPOSE OF MANNER.
Repose is a mark of good breeding.
It invests the person who possesses it
with peacefulness and individuality.
The fidgeting woman who lacks repose
can be found everywhere. She is in
church, where she drops her hymnal,
fans herself incessantly, lets her gaze
wander over the congregation and away
from the service and changes her posi-
tion in the pew half a dozen times. She
is in the theatre, where she puts her hat
first in her lap, then at her feet, then
under her chair, then back on her lap,
whispers loudly, giggles, munches bon-
bons, mislays her opera glasses and can't
keep track of her programme. She tra-
vels on the railway trains, where she
lowers and raises shades, calls the con-
ductor to open the window and a few
minutes later calls him back to close it,
where she puts her coat on and off every
few miles, walks up and down the aisle
cant find her ticket when it is wanted,
arranges and rearranges her hair, and
then at the journey's end wonders why
she looks tired and untidy.
On the other hand, there is the woman
of repose, who always looks as if she
belonged wherever she happens to be.
She is a good listener, a good talker, a
good companion generally, because she
is definite. And often you give her cre-
dit for having more personality, more
depth than she really has, for she does
not give herself away with every sent-
ence she utters and every move she
makes. Perhaps her mind wanders some-
times, but she does not show it by allow-
ing her 'gaze to wander too, She gets
restless, but does not fidget. Shelsome.
times mislays her glasses, but she does
not frantically turn everything in sight
upside down until she has made sure they
are not on her nose.
WHY IS A BAGPIPE?
Where, we desire to know, did the
Scot get the notion that a bagpipe is a
musical instrtument? Or isn't that the
idea ? • From the Atchison Globe.
What Scot ever called the pipes a
musical instrument? Isn't Brother Ed.
Howe a practical man? Surely he knows
the origin of the pipes. In the old
wicked ways bands of predatory Eng-
lish marched over the border, They
were as bobd add sturdy as the Scots
and far greater in number. Cluny Mac-
Wheuppert, the laird of Glengarramoyle,
in desperate need of a sure defence, in-
vented the pipes in secret and never
let a skirl out of them till he faced the

RENOVATING OF COMFORTS
If you find that your comforts have
been wearing out and think it necess-
ary to have some new ones before fall,
let me tell you a way to make them so
they will last twice as long as the old
way. Make your comfort of cotton in
the usual way and cover with white
cheesecloth. Tack it down rather close-
ly with white cord, then make two ex-
tra covers of dainty chintz, pink or blue
cheesecloth, or whatever will blend with
your bedroom furnishings.
Pull this over the white comfort and
tack it loosely with baby ribbon. You
can have two of these covers for com-
forts that are to be used rn the family
beds so that they can be taken off and
laundered at least twice during the win-
ter. These comforts are much more
sanitary, made in this way and the cov-
ers are easier to wash than woollen blan-
kets.
Take your pillows andhave them tho-
roughly beaten outdoors for two or three
days. This will give them as good an
airing as possible, and you can do the
same with your mattresses.
Be sure that you have a quilted or
closely tied bed tidy made of white cot-
ton cloth on every bed over the matt-
resses. These will keep them clean and
will pay for themselves many times ov-
er in the wear and tear of the mattress
and the good health of your family.
Make them of white so they will show
stains and dust and give you no excuse
for not keeping them clean. They should
be about half the thickness of a comfort.
chronic Ntoraseh Trouble Cared.
There is nothing more discouraging
than a chronic disorder stomach. It is
not surprising that many auffer for
years with such an ailment when & per-
manent cure is within their reach and
may be had for a trifle? "About one
year ago." says P. H. Beck, of Wake -
lee, Mich., "I bought a package of
Chamberlain's Tablets, and since using
them I have felt perfectly well. I had
previously used an number of differ-
-eat medicines, but none of them were
of any lasting benefit." For sale by all
dealers.

"The reason we have taken the atti-
tude we have taken against this bill is
to call the attention of the House and
country to the most important measure
perhaps, which hats ever engaged its
attention during the forty years and
more of its existence: Important it is
because it opens the way to a new de-
parture altogether in
our Waliohal lift.
This present hour and this present day
are not without solemnity. If we pass
this bill,I

THE CHINESE JUNK
A Curious Craft It Is, With Eyes
Painted on Its Masts.
SOME TOPSY TURVY METHODS 3

The origin of the ancient Old world

volved in some obscurity, fent its first
model seems to have been a -Minnie
conception of some tinge marine mon-
ster. The teeth which are usually
shown in ail the terrors of ferocity Ole
the bow denote the mouth. Long
boards running aft from the bow, boat
to port and to starboard. represent the
awe inspiring jaws. The sails are tins,
while the tail waving aloft, an appen-
dix which all properly constituted
dragons of the sea must certainly have,
is denoted in the high stern, But moat
of these characteristics have lost ranch
of their signillcauce in recent years,
with the one exception of the eyes.
which are always painted on the masts..
Captain Jobn is loath to part with
them, for, as be warily exclaims:
"No nave eye, no can see; no can see.
no can go."
John Chinaman. shipbuilder, when
be takes a notion to build one of his
junks dues not bother himself muck
about plans and specifications. (live
bim the model. Then he will lay his
lines off on the floor or on an open
space of ground and build his ship as
be goes along by the simple rule of
thumb. Cousidering the result be baa
attained, he is no doubt convinced of
the superiority of his method over ev-
ery other. Fir, teak and pine are the.
woods- he uses in his construction.
The seams of the bull are caulked,
with rattan shavings and "payed" with,
a cement of oil and. gypsum. The.
whole of the bull is well tarred, while
the upper works are smeared with,
wood oil. '.Chen comes a final coat of
paint -green, blue, white, red -in fact,
any color but yellow. which must bet
reserved for the many flags the Som -
wend ship will carry to proclaim bee
nationality.
When it comes to equipments, they
seem antiquated compared with the -
ones we employ. The windlass is an
elongated, barrel shaped roller extend-
ing across the broad bow, on either
side of which Is arranged ai• series of
fixed spokes bearing a strong resem-
blance to a wheel without a tire. Phreen
this Is hung great teakwood anchors
with Iron bound flukes and cables of
eolr or bamboo rope. This ingenitfa
contrivance is capable of being oper-
ated by either band or foot,
• in the way of sail the style depends
on whether you are in north or south
China. Among the northern Chinese: a
long mainmast carrying short big sails
is found. In the southern country the ,(�
sails are generally of woven mat strips •~
sewed Into a single sheet and provided
with yards at the top and bottom. The
bamboo ribs crossing it serve to keep
the hoops on the mast. in place and en-
able the boatmen to haul the sail close
on the wind.s.This mainsail is the chief
dependence. though sometimes a
"driver" is placed on the tnitraia Ruta g,
small gaff near the bow. But bowsprits
are nut considered at all necessary by
John Chinaman.
in the matter of rigging we find John
quite familiar with everything he re-
quire+, halyards, sheets and braces
are used as with tie. His blocks, though
larger, are not as shapely and are
fewer in number•. Clumsy at. the red-
